Seaside guest house a stone's throw from the beach, a property with a garden, is set in Dawlish, 2.4 km from Teignmouth Town Beach, 2.7 km from Red Rock Beach, as well as 12 km from Newton Abbot Racecourse. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located 1.9 km from Dawlish Beach.

A lovely little studio with nicely stocked facilities. The sheets were lovely and soft, the bed very comfortable. There was a TV which we used to snuggle and watch a film on in the evening as it had Netflix access (may have also had others, we didn't check past Netflix). Everything was very clean and I always got a quick response if I needed help. Also, the scones, jam and cream in the fridge was a lovely surprise. I couldn't recommend this little place enough.

    The bedroom was very clean and comfortable. The towels were soft and bathroom was well stocked. We had our own lounge also which was well equiped. The breakfast was fantastic the duck eggs we had for breakfast were also fantastic. Very quiet location and the hosts were very friendly and welcoming. If you are looking for peace and quiet this is definately the place to stay. We only stayed one night and we wish we could of stayed longer.

    location was in a quiet road at the 'back of Dawlish and From Little Weech it was a good 15/20 mins walk into the centre but we didn't really mind that. Wear sensible shoes as its an incline to get back. Hosts particularly kind and considerate.

    Everything you could need for a family getaway, great location close to the beach, train station and other amenities. The park was fairly quiet with good facilities and plenty of trees to provide some shade throughout the day.
